Stayed for two nights. Chose this hotel as close to the start line of the Funchal Marathon. The main part of the town is a good 40 minute walk which is hilly in places. Be warned, if you're not in a car you have quite a steep walk to get to the hotel. You go down two lots of stairs to get to the buffet restaurant. Better signage is required as it is not clear from a distance where the restaurant is. You see the sign when you're on top of it. The restaurant itself was very chaotic lots of people getting in each other way. Though staggered evening meal slots still too many in there. Choice of food was quite good and varied however wasn't hot. Breakfast starts at 7.30 am though judging how many were already there when I arrived just after 7.30 am they probably allow guests in before then. I found one table free with no cutley so ended up setting my own table. There needs to be clear signs on where to obtain hot water for making tea and where the milk is located. The milk should be near both machines which are at both ends of the restaurant. When I found the milk I was disappointed that it did not taste fresh. Did not raise with the staff in the restaurant as lack of English understood. It was good that fresh fruit was available bananas, apples, melon and pineapple. Would of been nice to have a bowl of berries. The hotel room is part studio with fridge, microwave and cooker. It would of been helpful to have glasses which were not for wine and a tea towel would also useful.

Good Value for money

Hotel room was clean, adequate for our needs and had a small balcony. Bed was very uncomfortable though. Facilities at the hotel were good. Hotel was on a very steep hill, so not so good if you're unfit. We hired a car for 3 days and was able to park in the Hotel underground car park, however I would imagine there wouldn't be enough spaces in peak season.

Nice hotel close to Lido

Good location and pleasantly surprised re breakfast choice. Room was okay and clean. I’ve stayed in better but more expensive hotels. Staff were lovely. Didn’t make use of indoor pool or jacuzzi but looked amazing. Gym was so so with mainly weights and abs no cardio machines. Location was ideal for walk to town or rocky beach.

Value for money

Once you have managed to walk up the steep hill to this hotel you are rewarded with outstanding views over Funchal. The decor could be spruced up a bit, but if you want a fancier hotel then go to a more expensive one with a lesser view. The food was good and the staff, especially at reception, are great. Nothing is too much trouble, and always friendly and very helpful. Location is excellent. Restaurants, shops and buses are all close by.

Value for money

The hotel was clean and breakfast was good. Service at the bar was very poor, they never had any change in the till as they seemed to only cater for all-inclusive, and bar staff tended to ignore you. Room was clean but stifling hot as there was a large hot water pipe in the wardrobes that acted like central heating and as there is no air conditioning I would hate to stay in the summer. Overall very good value for money though, but probably would not return.

Our third stay here.

The hotel keeps improving - which is nice. Accommodation is plain but cleanliness and comfort are what interest us most. This is the third time we have stayed at this hotel and our only complaint would be that you experience quite a lot of traffic noise. However, for the price paid we cannot complain. Good facilities and a great location.

Budget offering in truest sense

The Mimosa has all the facilities on paper and is conveniently situated for a vacation near to Funchal. The staff are mostly very courteous and helpful BUT beware the facilities are very rudimentary and furnishings, decor etc. are seriously outdated and the whole place is years overdue for investment and refurbishment. But everything is clean to their credit. For example, the lounge furniture is marked, scarred, damaged. The decor is depressingly bland painted walls and ceilings. In the bedroom, the bed linen is very worn with thin towels with holes! The furniture is very well-used, beds hard and old and pillows - ugh! You are promised a kitchenette - again absolute minimum - no kettle just a two-plate stove with just enough cutlery and crockery. The views are appealing (though partial ocean in my case) BUT the only ventilation is via a hinged patio door. If it storms you have no option other than to close the door and, even then, thew ingress of rainwater could not be stopped. The breakfast is extremely basic - buffet in the narrowest sense as choice is very limited and the hot food again depressingly bland and pre-cooked. Lastly, BE VERY AWARE that the access to the hotel is up a very steep long hill, being the third building of this Dorisol Group on this site and highest up the slope! Not for the frail or faint-hearted and, to reach the main restaurant / shopping street, another steep climb. If you truly want budget accommodation and facilities this maybe for you.
